[Koha] Koha to MARC mapping

[Winter, James]

A related question, maybe. I'm trying to retrieve embedded item information from our MARCXML file.

I tried changing the tag in the XML to 994 and mapping the item fields to the appropriate subfields in the 994 tag but that didn't do it. If I manually change the 994 to 952 and manually change the subfields appropriately, I get items created automatically.

One of two things will help a lot; one, does anyone know of a good command-line xml search and replace utility? Or two, is there a step I'm missing in changing the MARC fields for the item fields?

Thank you.

If you added a new column to the biblioitems table, you'll need to
modify the _koha_add_biblioitem() and
_koha_modify_biblioitem_nonmarc() routines in C4/Biblio.pm to make
sure it gets populated the next time you load records.

Yes, sounds like a leftover.
